Thomas Jure played for London as a specialist batsman, and is mentioned in match reports from 1747 to 1749. A top-class player, he made numerous appearances in historically important matches, both eleven-a-side and single wicket.
If it was played, one of the biggest matches of the 1747 season might have been Long Robin's Nine v William Hodsoll's Ten on the Artillery Ground. Planned for 9 July, it was a "scratch match" arranged by members of the London club. The players were mostly from London, Bromley, Dartford, Hadlow, and Slindon. Long Robin's Nine were Robert Colchin, all three—Adam, John, and Richard—Newland brothers, both—James and John—the Bryant brothers, Little Bennett, John Bowra, and Thomas Jure. Hodsoll's Ten were William Hodsoll, Allen, John Bell, Thomas Bell, Broad, Tom Faulkner, one—either Joe or John—of the Harris brothers, and three players from Hadlow who were John Larkin, Jones, and one unnamed team-mate.
In two later matches, Jure played for England against Kent on 31 August, at the Artillery Ground; and on 2 September, on Bromley Common.
On Saturday, 5 September 1747, there was a three-a-side single wicket game at the Artillery Ground between Long Robin's Three and Stephen Dingate's Three. The teams were Robert Colchin (alias Long Robin), John Harris, and Val Romney against Stephen Dingate, Richard Newland, and Thomas Jure. It was played for 60 guineas per side, and the players were specially chosen from those who had played in the Kent v England games above, so possibly they were the best performers in those matches. It was ruled that "all Strokes behind as well as before Wickets" counted, and in this respect the contest "differs from any Three Match ever play'd".
Jure is not mentioned in the 1748 sources. He is known to have played once in 1749. On 26 June, he was a member of Stephen Dingate's XI against Long Robin's XI at the Artillery Ground. The result is unknown.
